The Autumn Sun (AUS) - Sopraffina (NZ)

The day after Supera produced a sterling effort at Group One level, her half-sister Sopraffina has produced an imposing colt by The Autumn Sun. Redoute's Choice has crossed exceptionally well with this family in the past, & that would appear to be the case again now.

Savabeel (AUS) - Sopraffina (NZ)

Sopraffina has produced an impressive filly by Savabeel. This foal is a three quarter sister to Supera and is built in the classic mold of Savabeel fillies. Being a granddaughter of the great Ethereal it is hard not to get excited about what she might achieve on the track later in her career.
